Hello Word in CGI

[Olivier Dagenais]

Actually, it might be easier to localize the string if it takes parameters,
although they might need to be positional parameters (a bit like the
FormatMessage and the %1, %2, etc...)..  I do believe Python has an
equivalent, be it naming the variables explicitly in the string.
